Greetings Brothers and Sisters,I started this group, but I want you to know that I don't run it. It runs itself. Likewise no one person controls this group. You don't need to run things by me to post them. All I ask is that you keep the language clean and respect all Christians, no matter their denomination.Yours in Christ,John-Carlos

Our Nation used to be an enlightened and virtuous people. Enlightened, because we knew that God was our sole provider, and we knew the principles of liberty that our heavenly Father had given us through his holy word. We were virtuous because we followed what was in his holy word, and lived by it. Now is the time for us to turn back to God and repent and pray for the Lord to heal our land. In 2 Chronicles 7:14 it says:" If my people which are called by my name, shall humble themselves and pray, and seeke my face, and turn from their wicked ways: then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land." There is still hope for our Nation if we turn back to God. We have nothing to fear. "Fear not" is said 365 times in the Bible. That is a "fear not" for each day of the year. I mention in my book " The Liberty Manifesto" how we as a Nation can through real world solutions, and Gods word restore our Republic. the book is available at createspace.com/4928809 and also amazon.com

When ever I am overwhelmed with the state of our country falling into a more sinful condition, and begin to fear what is coming our way; I go back and read all the scriptures throughout the word of God that say over and over again that

God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of strength and truth. He has called us to be the light in this dark world that is ruled by the forces of evil. He has promised to be by our side and stand firm and steadfast to the end.

I then rest in this assurance:

Beloved, now we are the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be:

But we know that when he shall appear, we shall be like him. For We Shall See Him As He Is. 1John 3:2

This will give us, the Sons of God, the courage and strength to continue on, unafraid of what is coming our way, knowing that it will all be worth it When We See Him.

Researchers at the Cato Institute have developed an interactive map that allows users to explore the conflicts taking place across U.S. public schools.

Be they curriculum battles (such as religious or sex education), conflicts over race and ethnicity within school systems (including school mascots), or freedom of expression controversies (freedom of speech versus school authority, for example), this interactive website maps the locations of education conflicts across the country.

The highly influential group founded by newly appointed White House counselor John Podesta has recommended “game-changing” education reforms, including the involvement of labor unions in higher education.

Scores of recommendation papers produced by Podesta’s Center for American Progress, or CAP, already helped to inform and craft policy for the Obama administration.

The Common Core gold rush is on. Apple, Pearson, Google, Microsoft and Amplify are all cashing in on the federal standards/testing/textbook racket. But the EduTech boondoggle is no boon for students. It's more squandered tax dollars down the public school drain.

Even more worrisome: The stampede is widening a dangerous path toward invasive data mining.

When North Carolina and other states signed on to the federally promoted Common Core standards, it came with an expensive price — a so-called “PreK-20” data collection system that even threatens homeschoolers. You know, questions about religion, income, and race.

Federal government to recognize same-sex marriages in Utah

WASHINGTON – Attorney General Eric Holder said Friday the federal government will recognize more than 1,000 same-sex marriages in Utah, despite an earlier announcement this week from the state’s governor saying the state would not.

Education Secretary Arne Duncan joined Attorney General Eric Holder, Jr. yesterday to release new guidelines to help schools improve the way they handle disciplinary issues, the Washington Post reports.

While emphasizing the importance of safe schools, Duncan said a re-boot was needed to bring fairness to the process, which often discriminates against minority students.

“The need to rethink and redesign school discipline practices is frankly long overdue,” Education Secretary Arne Duncan said yesterday at a school in Baltimore.
